We’re proud to announce that Adrian Brakeley of Johnston County was elected as YDNC’s 84th president. “I promise that we’ll take every righteous fight in pursuit of a future that’s safer, more welcoming, and leaves no one behind. Let’s get to work.” #ncpol

“We have the choice to fan flames or stand up for our common humanity and love for our neighbors by rejecting political violence in all forms. We stand united in choosing the latter, and we hope you’ll join us.” Our joint statement with the North Carolina Federation of Young Republicans ⬇️

YDNC condemns Rep. Carla Cunningham’s hateful, anti-immigrant remarks. “To Rep. Cunningham: Your override vote was shameful. Your words were abhorrent. And you will be held accountable by your community.” See our statement. ⬇️

“Our hearts are with everyone who knew and loved Speaker Emerita Melissa Hortman and her spouse, and we continue hoping and praying for the full recovery of Senator John Hoffman and his spouse.” From YDNC President Zach Finley:

Today we honor and remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice.

All of this, unfortunately, costs an insane amount of money. @YDNC has a goal of raising $10,000 to support our programming, buy supplies for our chapters, and help send delegates going to Philadelphia for National Convention. Help us meet our goal: secure.actblue.com/donate/ydnc

3. Show up everywhere. We are going to be everywhere we can be. My mission over these next 100 days is going to be making sure our chapters and members have the resources they need to engage in their communities, and whenever I can, I'm going to be right there beside them.

2. We need to engage young people where they are at. We still have work to do to bring folks back to the table who stayed home in 2024 because they didn't like what our party had to offer. Our caucuses are a vital tool to do that, and I'm focused on building them up.

1. We need to be organized all across North Carolina. We have races on the ballot in 25/26 that we cannot leave uncontested & campaigns that need support. These next 100 days I'm going to be traveling across the state getting chapters of young Democrats organized & ready to go.

On Saturday, I was reelected as President of @ydnc.bsky.social. I’m grateful to my fellow YDs who placed their faith in me to lead our federation once again. In 100 days, YDNC goes to Philly for @youngdems.bsky.social National Convention. I want to share what we're gonna do between now and then:

We know we’re going to have to mobilize quickly in North Carolina, which means we need folks standing by ready to help in WHATEVER capacity we need. Sign up below to get rapid response updates: NCDP.org/protectthevote

We just sent out a newsletter with step-by-step instructions for people on The Griffin List, and everything we know. We also want to encourage people to sign up for the North Carolina Democrats' rapid response list. NCDP.org/protectthevote

What an amazing @ydnc.bsky.social Convention! We met so many focused, hard-working, and motivated #YoungDemocrats that are doing the work that needs to be done in the Old North State (too many to name here)!

Statement from YDNC President @zachfinley.com on the NC Court of Appeals’ decision to disenfranchise more than 65,000 voters. “North Carolina deserves better than these losers blowing up our democratic process because they can’t admit they lost.” #ncpol

Gotta admit, pretty impressive that Cory Booker is not just going but fucking cooking at 20+ hours.

This #TransDayOfVisibility, we must recommit ourselves to protecting transgender individuals in North Carolina & fight to ensure everyone feels safe to be their authentic self. Trans people deserve the freedom to live openly & be protected under the law.

While there are folks who will choose to demonize and attack trans and non-binary folks, there are so many more who choose love and acceptance. Today, and every day, we won’t stop fighting, because North Carolina is for everyone. Always. #TransDayOfVisibility

Today, we celebrate the strength and resilience of our transgender friends and neighbors. As attacks on the trans community continue to increase, so must our resolve.

Elon Musk has broken into our systems and ruined our Valentine’s Day cards

“The Bureau of the Fiscal Service is a sleepy part of the Treasury Dept. It’s also where, a 25-year-old engineer tied to Elon Musk has admin privileges over the code that controls Social Security payments, tax returns, and more.” From @wired.com ⬇️ www.wired.com/story/elon-m...

Congratulations to North Carolina’s own Reyna Walters-Morgan on being elected as the next DNC Vice Chair for Civic Engagement & Voter Participation! We’re proud to have our state / the South represented so well on the national stage. 💪

Join us this Black History Month as we honor the strength and resilience of Black Americans throughout our history. As the hostile new administration makes clear their war on diversity, we will continue fighting for a Union that is safer, more diverse, and more just.

We are devastated by the mid-air collision and crash near DCA. There are no words to describe how tragic this disaster is. Our hearts are with the friends, family, and loved ones of those lost.

Today, we honor Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s legacy of tireless advocacy for civil rights, economic justice, and racial equality. To truly honor his legacy, we must carry on his fight and work towards his dream of justice for all people.

714 days ago, @ydnc.bsky.social stuck up for one of our own to become the next chair of the @ncdemocrats.bsky.social. Our faith wasn’t misplaced then and it isn’t now. Tonight, I am so proud that YDNC once again endorses our fellow young Democrat @abreezeclayton.bsky.social to a 2nd term as chair.

YDNC is proud to endorse our fellow young Democrat Anderson Clayton for reelection as chair of the North Carolina Democratic Party. We look forward to continuing the fight alongside her for a new South. ☀️

Who here, like us, is thankful for North Carolina? Happy Thanksgiving, friends. 🦃
